I understand the concern with the Corona virus outbreak, I truly do, but it's insignificant when compared to the flu. According to the CDC website: "CDC estimates that influenza has resulted in between 9 million – 45 million illnesses, between 140,000 – 810,000 hospitalizations and between 12,000 – 61,000 deaths annually since 2010."

Just read an article claiming almost 30,000 have died in the quarantined province. Interesting times.
